I know this is probably simple but i have a kix script that runs minimized. I would like to call another kix script in another viewable dos box that will run while the other script is running as well. I tried the call command but that runs it inside the same script

code:
RUN 'kix32.exe \\server\share\script.kix'

will start a second instance of KiXtart and run both scripts parallel. Use SHELL instead of RUN if you want the first script to stop until the second script is finished running.

Both scripts will use the same console "DOS box". Maybe you should consider WKiX for the "hidden" one.

bortunk, for other script running at the same time:
inside the script:
run "start kix32 script.kix"

start produces other window for the other kix process.

cheers,
